M4RC Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 I have to fill the engine coolant up every 3 weeks. I've checked for cracks etc but can't find anything. What's the next step?

alexp999 Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Do you get any drips under the car, or find any residue under the bonnet? I would also check the pressure cap on the reservoir, as I know these can fail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselPig Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Have a look around the water pump pulley for water marks, if it only leaks when the engines hot the water boils off and there are no tell-tale drips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
